Now Income Tax will access your Social Media Account & more | Explained by @CASantoshKapal

Starting April 1, 2026, income tax authorities will be able to access and scrutinise every person’s social media accounts, personal emails, bank accounts, online investment accounts, trading accounts and more.

Authorities will be able to override access to digital platforms if they suspect that the individual has evaded income tax or if they have reason to believe that the person has any undisclosed income, money, gold, jewellery or valuable item or property on which the applicable income tax has not been paid as per the Income Tax Act, 1961.

These include email servers, social media accounts, online investment accounts, trading accounts, banking accounts, etc., any website used for storing details of ownership of any asset, remote server or cloud servers, digital application platforms, and any other space of similar nature.

The unrestricted surveillance under the new I-T bill also challenges Article 19(1) of the constitution, the right to freedom of speech and expression of an individual, making it legally fragile and questionable.
